I used the "linked offset" in the Path menu, in some cases it gives good
results; the single node is the handle that you can move to adjust the
offset distance.
Be aware that when you create a linked offset, i don't know why but it's
put under the original object, so you have to rise it up in order to use
it as inner stroke ;)
